It can be, referring to a crying person. Crying can also be a verb form, and a noun (gerund) meaning the act of crying, or making a cry (crying out).

The -ING form of a verb can be used as a noun, adjective, or adverb.

"Sobbing" is an adjective if applied to a person, i.e. "a sobbing woman".

It might be (whiffling legislators). The verb to whiffle means to blow lightly (the wind) in different directions, so has come to mean vacillating, as from indecision or inconsistency.

It can be (whimpering dog, whimpering cowards). It can also be a noun or a verb form.

It is the present participle of the verb "to whimper" (to cry or sniff in a pitiful manner).
